https://meditofoundation.org/medito-app is not part of my morning routine as for the effects, results of meditation are never immediate or even obvious, just over time, if one persists, things get a little easier.
Speak for yourself.
In fact, a classic warning is to beware of getting carried away by the bliss/high that commonly arrives.
So I gotta say. If it ain't getting you high, or producing even a little bit of noticeable effect, then you would do well to experiment with other techniques.
Indeed, we must be speaking of different kinds of meditation.
The one I was referring to is mindfulness meditation, by practicing which one gradually develops a habit of noticing thoughts as they happen in one's mind and instead of being immediately carried away by them, have a tiny time buffer that allows to have a chance to decide whether to react or just let it dissipate as all thoughts do.
Yes, even with mindfulness meditation.
If you are not guided by results then what guides you, a happy story?
